Mom's Crockpot Country Chicken Soup

Here's a nice, easy, hearty soup recipe for a cold January night. Even better--it does its thing in your slow cooker while you putter around the house (ahem, taking down that Christmas tree, maybe?). This is a recipe from my mom. (*the picture shows this soup with a few modifications based on what I had--just so you know. I used a cup of ditalini noodles instead of egg noodles. I also threw in some corn that was hanging out in the fridge as well as less chicken....)

Crockpot Country Chicken Soup

2 onions, chopped

2-3 carrots, sliced

2 stalks celery, chopped

2 t. salt

1/4 t. pepper

1/2 t. basil

1/4 t. thyme

3 T. parsley

one 2.5-3 pound chicken, cut up (or equivalent chicken parts--can use all white meat if preferred)

4 c. water

1 c. egg noodles (uncooked)

Place all ingredients except noodles in crockpot in order listed. Cover and cook on low 8-10 hours or on high 4-6 hours.

One hour before serving, remove chicken and chop (let cool slightly first). Return meat to pot and add noodles. Cook on high for remaining hour.
